    WR planting dates

    I have been searching and cannot find what I am looking for. I am planting WR in the near future and cannot find when I should be planting it. I do not want to plant too early and have it get full of stems and tough before winter but still want to get it in early enough to put on some growth...

    Parts of a Trap

    What is the triangle wedge on the trap chain ring for? I have seen them on older foothold traps but have no idea what their purpose is. Have tried to research but I am coming up empty.

    Trimming Trees in Tubes

    I have searched the site and haven't found what I was looking for, maybe I am just missing it but I thought it was covered already. Last summer I planted roughly 60 apple seedlings about 24" tall. As soon as most of our 18" of current snow melts I am planning on cleaning out the tubes and...

    Herbicide drift question

A local farmer has had it planted in clover/ alf alfa the last few years (mostly grass now) He wants to spray it this summer and plant with radishes and clover to help the soil. Next year it would be planted with soy beans. I have 6 apple trees...

    Window screen protection

    I recently planted some small apple bare root trees. I put 18" of window screen on them to protect them inside of the tubes. Some of the trees were shorter than the screen. It is very loose around the tree. Will this hurt the tree if the screen is taller than the tree right now or should I have...
